i'll take a guess:

your EC/ppm is way too high? or your pH is not in proper range? or both?

You are actually right. Just checked my ph. Its seating at 5.8. But my ppm shot up to 2400!
It was 1100. Last week. Iono how that would happen.

Ive herd ur supposed to use the liguid first then the powder. Idk if u did that or nt or if it even matters. Just throwing that out there

At that many weeks of flower I'd take out 75% of that juice and top up with RO.

Yes. I used the liquid 1st. For the 1st 4 weeks of flower. I was told to switch to the powder after that. So that's what I did. I think when I checked the ppm the powder wasn't fully dissolved. But I dumped half of the water out n added r.o water to it. Down to 800ppm now. Hopefully that helps

Feeding kool bloom (or any pk booster) warrants cutting base nutrients up to 50%.

Mix the powder in small amount of warm water to fully dissolve before adding to your reservoir.

Hopefully with scaling back the ppm you won't see any issues being so late in bloom.
